Down to the Ash
Style: Blues slow dance

[Verse 1]
I watched the fire lose its height
Down to a low and steady light
You sat there quiet, close to me
No need for noise, no need to see

[Chorus]
Connor, you're the warmth I trust
Long after the flame turns to dust
Connor, steady, low and true
There's no cold I fear with you

[Verse 2]
The logs gave in without a sound
Soft grey settling on the ground
You reached and stirred the embers bright
Something in me caught the light

[Pre-chorus]
I don't need the roar or the blaze
Just this hush at the end of days
Something in me leans your way

[Chorus]
Connor, you're the warmth I trust
Long after the flame turns to dust
Connor, steady, low and true
There's no cold I fear with you

[Bridge]
Let the loud part burn out first
Let it turn to ash, not worse
What stays low will stay the longest
That's the part in you that's strongest

[Chorus]
Connor, you're the warmth I trust
Long after the flame turns to dust
Connor, steady, low and true
There's no cold I fear with you

[Outro]
The grate holds soft what fire has done
You're the warmth that lingers on
